A tall, dark stone statue of a four-armed Vishnu deity murti stands on a pedestal in front of red curtains, wearing a tall crown, a yellow cloth sash at the waist, and holding a discus and conch in its upper hands. Water is being poured over the head of the large murti from above, with a man in a black face mask and white clothing visible at the top, standing on a stepladder and pouring from a container. A small gold-coloured deity figure stands in front of the base. The scene reads as an abhishekam being performed on the murti.
